LONDON, June THE Times this morn
ing publishes another installment Of its
"ParnelIism and Crime" articles. Opposite
its leader page it prints fac-simile Of the
tenth page of the Irish World of New York
Of Feb. 16, 1884, and also the greater portion
Of Patrick FOrd's address, published inthe
same issue. The publications are accompa-
MED by an explanatory article describing the
various funds mentioned. and the fate of the
men connected Herewith. In an editorial
on the subject the Times says; "The whole
conspiracy, whether carried ON by mealy-
mouthed gentlemen, who SIT at London din
ner tables, OF by friends who organize arson
and. MURDER. is one and indivisible., Its
Same same men. directed to the same ends and in
spired by one universal hatred Of England
and q determination to bring about, il p0ssi-

and Ireland. Whether the money goes to
support the Gladstonians in Parliament or
to equip desperadoes for the committal of
outrages in English towns Is a mere matter
of tactics Whenever we find the c0nstitu-
tional agitators with the mask laid aside, as

The Russian ukase, forbidding foreigners
to acquire estates on the western frontier OF
Russia, is designed principally to put an end
to the influx Of Germans into Russia. There
are in Russia so many German factories,
workshops, warehouses and firms, the pro-
ductions of which are of profit to Germans
exclusively, that the Russian government re-
CARDS them as detrimental to the country,
Owing to their competition with Russian in
dustries. Besides, most Of the Germans in
Russia are members Of the German army re-
serve, and in the event Of war they might
become hostile outposts, familiar with Rus
sian topography, resources and strategic con-
dition, and might seek an alliance with the
Poles. The ukase will not effect its object
Immediately, as it does not disturb foreign
ers who are already landlords. Many hold
land under temporary concessions, which
will not be renewed when their terms expire.
| 1t is expected that the tenants will then
| leave their holdings, and that the owners
| of the land will then find circumstances so
| adverse that they will be compelled to leave.
| This, together with the Russianizlng move
ment in the Baltic provinces, will produce
| an increasing breach between Germany and
/ Russia, and render impossible q renewal OF
/ their former cordiality, which was under
| mined by Prince Bismarck's action at the
| Berlin congress, and his policy in the Bulga-
| rian crisis. -,
